to now read as:3b. For one full calender month the representative of a member nation will serve as the Deputy Secretary whom shall be vested with the responsibility of assisting the Secretary-General.

Re: [Amend the General Treaty] Permanent Deputy Secretary
The Shirerithian government is cautiously supportive of this measure, but given our constitutional restraints, we cannot vote in favour of an amendment of a treaty without ratification of the change from the legislature. Any amendment of a treaty is by our consitutitional construct classed as a new treaty.
As such, Shireroth would advise all state parties to carefully examine the General Treaty, to see if the organization will actually run efficicently under the proposed amendment. Another option would be to overhaul the entire treaty.

Secretary-General,

The amendment is supported by Talenore.3b. There shall be a Deputy Secretary-General, who shall be vested with the responsibility of assisting the Secretary-General. The Deputy Secretary-General shall be elected by the General Assembly. Should the Secretary-General be unavailable or unable to fulfill the duties of the office, the Deputy Secretary-General shall exercise the duties of the Secretary-General, until the return of the Secretary-General, or until such time that the Secretary-General is able to resume exercising the duties and powers of his office. The Deputy Secretary may be recalled by a simple majority of the General Assembly.

The Alexandria-Talenore version is accepted as the version we will vote on. Shireroth makes an interesting point, if there are other elements of the MTO we'd like to change we might want to do so now.
If we're happy with the structure of the MTO then I invite a delegate to move this to a vote.
